More Galaxy S25 FE details have leaked, camera specs may not pack any surprise
As we approach the September-October window, more leaks and rumours about the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE are expected to surface. In the latest development, a new report hints at the possible rear camera setup of the upcoming Fan Edition phone. According to Galaxy Club, the Galaxy S25 FE is likely to feature an 8-megapixel telephoto lens — so don't expect a major leap in zoom performance. The primary and ultra-wide cameras are expected to be 50-megapixel and 12-megapixel, respectively. This setup sounds familiar, as it's the same as what we saw on the Galaxy S24 FE, though Samsung might swap out the sensors this time — that part remains unclear for the bright side, the Galaxy S25 FE could get a proper front-camera upgrade. According to an earlier leak, the 10-megapixel selfie shooter may be replaced by a 12-megapixel unit — and while that doesn't sound like a big jump on paper, the real change could come from the sensor Samsung chooses and how well it's assured, more details about the Galaxy S25 FE will continue to surface as we get closer to launch. But if you're expecting a revolutionary upgrade, you might want to tone down your expectations. Think of this more as an evolutionary update to the S24 FE — one that fine-tunes a few things instead of reinventing the wheel. Design-wise, don't expect the Galaxy S25 FE to stand out from the rest of the Galaxy S25 series. It'll likely follow Samsung's familiar design language — clean, minimal, and modern — though we're curious to see if it manages to shave off a bit of thickness. On the front, you can expect a flat AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, a centre-aligned hole-punch for the selfie camera, and slim bezels all around. It should look and feel every bit like a premium Galaxy phone, just with the Fan Edition about pricing or availability are still under wraps. However, if Samsung follows its usual Fan Edition timeline, the Galaxy S25 FE should see a launch sometime between September and October. Some rumours also suggest that Samsung may launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE as well — which would be the first-ever Fan Edition foldable for the price, expect the Galaxy S25 FE to land under the Rs 60,000 mark — making it a more affordable entry into the Galaxy S25 family without giving up too much in terms of from this, Samsung recently unveiled the Galaxy S25 Edge at a starting price of $1,099 or Rs 1,09,999 in India. The company's next big launches are expected in July, where the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, and possibly Samsung's triple-fold phone may debut.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE expected specification The Galaxy S25 FE may have a 12MP selfie camera, which would be a minor improvement above the 10MP front sensors seen in the Galaxy S24 FE and S23 FE, according to a claim from GalaxyClub. Remarkably, the normal Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra are rumoured to have the same front camera. Even though it's still uncertain if the performance will match that of the flagship models, it still suggests a noticeable improvement. The 50MP primary sensor, which is also utilized in the Galaxy S23 FE and S24 FE, is anticipated to remain in the back camera configuration. Samsung has not yet confirmed the remaining features of the rear camera, but if the company follows last year's pattern, we might see a 12MP ultra-wide sensor and an 8MP telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. The Galaxy S25 FE is anticipated to have the same svelte Fan Edition design, which includes narrow bezels, a punch-hole display, and a high-end yet understated build, even though the exact specifications have not been disclosed. Samsung may use the MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset or the Exynos 2400e to power the phone's internal components. Although the Exynos chip is probably the best choice, in the event of production delays, the Dimensity processor might be employed.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE May Finally Fix Its Selfie Camera Problem with 12MP Upgrade
Samsung's Fan Edition (FE) smartphones have long struggled to deliver strong selfie camera performance, but that may soon change. According to fresh leaks, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE is expected to feature a 12-megapixel front camera, a small yet meaningful upgrade from previous models. So far, Samsung has rolled out four devices in the Galaxy S25 series: the Galaxy S25, S25+, S25 Ultra, and S25 Edge. However, based on the company's established release patterns, an FE version is likely in the pipeline—and reports suggest that development is already underway, with a launch expected later this year. The camera upgrade might not sound dramatic at first—just a bump from a 10MP to a 12MP sensor—but the impact will depend largely on the sensor's quality. While technical details remain unclear, this could mean sharper selfies and better detail capture, especially under good lighting. 'Upgrading the front-facing camera from a 10-megapixel sensor to a 12-megapixel one might not sound particularly groundbreaking, but it could prove more meaningful depending on the specific sensor Samsung opts to use,' notes the report. That said, it's unlikely to be a game-changing leap. With just a two-year gap between models, the improvement may be subtle rather than revolutionary, unless Samsung has replaced a particularly outdated sensor. Still, for users who rely on their front camera for video calls, selfies, or vlogs, even a small upgrade is a welcome change. On the other hand, rear camera upgrades seem off the table. A leak from Galaxy Club, shared via SamMobile, indicates that the main rear sensor will remain 50MP—just like the Galaxy S24 FE. It's unclear if it's the exact same sensor, but users can expect similar photo quality on the rear camera. In terms of performance, a more surprising twist comes from the chipset department. While the previous Galaxy S24 FE used the Exynos 2400e, recent leaks suggest that the Galaxy S25 FE might ditch Exynos in favour of MediaTek's Dimensity 9400 chip. This change marks a notable shift in Samsung's approach to its FE line, and could potentially deliver better efficiency and performance at a more affordable price point. Interestingly, the same MediaTek chip has also been linked to another yet-unannounced Samsung phone—the Galaxy Z Flip FE—fueling further speculation about the company's chipset strategy going forward.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could be in for a major selfie makeover
Samsung has had a busy year of phone launches so far, not only announcing the Galaxy S25 series at the beginning of the year, followed by the Galaxy A56 in March, but it also very recently released the super slim Galaxy S25 Edge. We aren't even half way through the year and there are already seven new Samsung Galaxy phones to choose from, but if you thought that was it for 2025, think again. Recommended Videos There's more to come and we don't just mean in terms of the company's foldable phones, which are expected by the end of the summer in the form of at least the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The Fan Edition – or FE model – of the Galaxy S25 is also rumored however, and the latest report suggests it could see a nice upgrade. What could the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE offer? According to GalaxyClub – which has a pretty decent track record when it comes to Samsung rumors – the Galaxy S25 FE is claimed to be getting an improved front facing camera. It's said the 2025 FE device will feature a 12-megapixel front camera, matching the resolution of the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus and Galaxy S25 Ultra, though it's not clear if it's the same sensor at the moment. Still, your selfies should at least see some improvements compared to the Galaxy S24 FE, which has a 10-megapixel front camera. In terms of the other camera specs on the Galaxy S25 FE, GalaxyClub claims the main camera will be a 50-megapixel sensor like the Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy S24 FE and the regular Galaxy S models that have launched since the Galaxy S22. For now, nothing is confirmed by Samsung of course but we're always here for improvements, not matter how small and especially ones that can make our face look a little better (we hope). As for when the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE might make an appearance, it's expected in the latter half of the year so it's likely the company's foldables will be first.

Samsung may turn to MediaTek for next Fan Edition phone, says report ahead of Galaxy S25 Edge launch
During the Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event, Samsung unveiled its three smartphones: the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. And now the fourth smartphone, the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, is confirmed to launch in India on May 13. But, based on traditions, we also expect a fifth S25 variant -- Samsung Galaxy S25 FE. While there is no official notification so far, a recent report has highlighted a few insights of the Fan Edition model. According to recent rumours, the S25 FE is expected to ditch the Exynos 2400e chip and may pack a MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chip. advertisementSamsung Galaxy S25 FE chipset details Since the FE models are known to be a toned-down version of the series. Similarly, while we were expecting modest specs, the new report points at an unprecedented upgrade. According to a report from NoteBookCheck, which cites anonymous industry sources, Samsung is considering equipping the upcoming Galaxy S25 FE with MediaTek's Dimensity 9400 chipset. While the Exynos 2400e remains the preferred option, production capacity issues at Samsung Foundry may force the company to adopt MediaTek's silicon as a final hardware decision is expected to hinge on market conditions closer to launch. Although the Dimensity 9400 appears to outperform the Exynos 2400e on paper, Samsung is likely to favour its own chip to bolster its foundry business and avoid the higher manufacturing costs associated with TSMC, which produces MediaTek's Last year's Galaxy S24 FE featured the Exynos 2400e, and earlier reports suggested Samsung might reuse the same processor in this year's Fan Edition model. This chipset has also been rumoured for use in the yet-to-be-confirmed Galaxy Z Flip Galaxy S25 FE to feature Android 16 According to another report by Sam Mobile, Samsung has begun to develop the software for the Galaxy S25 FE. The smartphone was spotted with model number SM-S731U and firmware version S731USQU0AYDH. This simply means that Samsung has started to lay the groundwork for the software which will run on the Galaxy S25 FE. Considering the spotting, the smartphone is expected to run on One UI 8 based on Android 16 out of the box. It was further highlighted that the smartphone could offer up to seven years of OS upgrades after its official Galaxy S25 FE is expected to debut either at the tail end of the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter of 2025. As with previous Fan Edition devices, it is likely to be a pared-down version of the main Galaxy S25 (review), which runs on a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor.
